Lionel Luthor se precipita por la carretera, borracho y atontado. Ve un montón de escombros demasiado tarde, y su camioneta se precipita por un precipicio hacia el agua que se encuentra muy abajo. Ve una mancha roja y Superboy lo salva de la muerte. La policía ignora su disparatada historia. Lex Luthor recibe la llamada de que su padre ha sido rescatado y les dice que remolquen la camioneta de vuelta a casa. Se indica que saboteó los frenos del vehículo, gracias a los manuales que tenía en su área de trabajo.

Más que asentar la idea de un Superman aislado, su etapa como Superboy y la Legión de Superhéroes, este número plantea el entusiasme de Clark y el inicio de su transición hacia Superman. Aún así, le falta algo de dinamismo.

Clark balances his youth between Super”boy” and Clark Kent. He struggles to hold friendships, and pursue relationships. Meanwhile he goes on a journey to the future where he gets to see how much of a legend he becomes. Krypto also arrives to him on the same type of rocket he came to earth on.
